A Piece Of Paradise!
Unit 231 which is in the Plumeria building offers stunning ocean, island, sunset and mountain views from the living areas as well as the bedroom!

Wake up to the sounds of the birds and the view of the ocean (100 yards away).
This unit was remodeled in March of 2018.
The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pans and small appliances that you will need to cook with. There are 5 gas barbeques located in the courtyard/common area adjacent the pool area. Enjoy a barbeque while watching the sunset! This is an extremely friendly complex.

Great location in Kihei, easy access to beaches, restaurants, grocery stores. Comfortable, clean condo. Sue is a fantastic host, very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay here.
This property is close to many local beaches, shops and is an easy drive from the airport. The condo has a well-equipped kitchen, comfy furniture and lovely sunsets. We would love to stay here again.
Great location. Check in was so easy. The place had everything you would need. Well stocked kitchen, beach chairs and a definite beach vibe. Would recommend to my friends!.
The condo is clean, well stocked and perfect location on the beach. Thanks for sharing your quiet, peaceful, and little piece of Heaven on earth place with us!
Very comfortable second floor location with an ocean view from the lanai. We stayed Friday through Wednesday and really enjoyed the easy "walk to the beach" access without having to cross any roads. It was quiet and we loved that it was just a few blocks north of the main part of Kihei and plenty of eating, shopping, and activities. Everything from church to Mama's Fishhouse to a Luau at the Marriott were easily accessible with a short drive. We enjoyed our stay and would love to return!
Sue’s condo was perfect! The beach is just a 2 min walk across the grassy area. The condo was spotless & we had everything we needed for our beach days! I would recommend this space & I would stay again!
My wife and I on our 25th wedding anniversary. We have stayed at the village by the sea on many occasions as we love the facilities and the location. This condominium was exceptionally well stocked with everything a guest could need for a two week stay. Great view and a great location within walking distance of turtles just up the beach and we would definitely stay at this condominium again. Thank you so much, Sue!
This one bedroom apartment is located on the ocean side of the road close to all conveniences in Kihei pool and hot tub were working the whole time. Condo is properly stocked with all kitchen items needed as well as beach chairs, snorkel gear and umbrella for daily trips to the beach. It is on the second floor and the elevators are in the building.

This was a really nice one-bedroom, one-bath condo on the second floor with a view of the ocean out the sliding glass window and lanai. Perfect spot for viewing sunsets, at least this time of year (January). One can also see part of the top of Haleakala (extinct volcano) from the lanai if it's not too cloudy. The kitchen is well equipped with just about everything one would need. The beach was maybe one hundred yards away from the complex and the walk to the beach was through a nice, grassy area with beautiful palm trees around and a nice view of the northwest mountains. I would highly recommend this unit for anyone wanting to stay on Maui. The unit owner was very nice and pleasant to work with. Thank you!
Really enjoyed our stay at this property. Short drive to restaurants and shopping in Kihei. Easy access to the beach for those morning walks. A/C worked great and kept us comfortable. Would stay here again on our next Maui trip.

Perfect location and beautiful views. Condo was clean and has everything you need! Pool very nice and well kept. Grocery store, gas, Starbucks,
And eating places all nearby. Only about 20 minutes from airport. I would definitely stay here again.
Our experience at Sue’s condo was excellent! The check-in process was smooth, the condo was exceptionally clean, the kitchen was fully equipped, and the view was beautiful! Also the location is very central, with shops and beautiful beaches close by. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re planning a trip to Maui.
My wife and I had am amazing time and will definitely be back again to stay at Sue’s condo. We were very pleased with our stay here on Maui and Sue did an amazing job keeping us informed of things to do on the island and recommendations to eat and what beaches we should go to. Definitely a must stay! The unit has everything you need and it’s located right on the water. The sunrises and sunsets were perfect!

Maui review
Beautiful condo. Very well kept and clean.Has all the amenities. Great view from the balcony.Sue answered all our questions and responded quickly to our emails. Definitely recommend.
My husband and I spent 8 nights in paradise for our 10th wedding anniversary. Sue's place is fabulous and I can't believe the price! We love to cook and were very happy to find a kitchen with everything necessary to cook all of our favorites. You can't beat the location and the ability to walk straight out to the beach anytime you want. We will definitely be back to Maui and we will definitely stay in Sue's property again.

What a nice surprise!
This is a very clean and quiet condo. The location for us could not have been better. It's close to a very long and uncrowded beach. Restaurants and groceries are a short drive away. The owners were very helpful when we booked and gave us some much appreciated information before we arrived. We will book this condo again if it's available.
